Question

I have a string:

"a","b","c"

and I can split those words to:

a
b
c

using Javascript, but how about:

"a,","b\"","c\,\""

How do I get:

a,
b"
c,"

Answer 1

Still not sure if this is one string? But if it is… and this is the only instance of it that you want manipulated, you could use this super convoluted way….

var a = '"a,","b\"","c\,\""';
var b = a.replace(/"/,'');
  //get rid of the first "
var c = b.lastIndexOf('"');
  //find the last "
var d = b.substring(0,c);
  //cut the string to remove the last "
var e = d.split('","');
  //split the string at the ","

for(var i="0"; i<e.length; i++){
    document.write(e[i] + '<br />');    
}
